Thank you all for kind words. Waiting is killing me. I hope that all will be ok, and then I can give her a piece of my mind. 😁 I'm one of those persons who tell you immediately what they think and want. I'm going to assemble new shelves.
Good morning everyone .Rosie you must be exhausted. I hope you are asleep now .Ante your chat with your sister must be worrying you .Busy you must be really fed up with all the messing about .I hope the plumber sorts it and you don’t have anymore problems .Debs I was so sorry to read your news.My very best wishes to you and your family.LB is Lily over her vet visit?I guess she will have forgiven you by now .I hope I haven’t forgotten anything important.
Good Morning Bluebells, Ante, Debs, LB, Biglad, SGL & Rubee, Bluebells I hope you’ve returned to sleep after such an early start, Ante Such a worry to have to wait for this conversation with your sister, hoping for the best 🤞 Debs The night out together will be good for daughter & OH, pleased to hear she has a date for the treatment to start i hope this is the turning point now for them, LB Hope Lily is more relaxed this morning, I would think you’re feeling as relieved too it’s stressful for you both, SGL Hope you both had a good nights sleep,
Rubee I hope today is not going to be as busy for you, I was out early delivering sons car for an MOT, hoping it goes through without any issues 🤞
Man is here and has inspected the septic tank. He has come to the conclusion that it was badly installed in the first place and has sunk on one side as the foundation wasn't solid enough. Sounds like the shower I've just had changed which was sitting on a lump of polystyrene! P (previous owner of my house) and a builder friend of his installed both. Man said that the levels of the tank aren't right, he showed me, so that it is too low at the entry and too high at the exit. He said it could have deformed or even broken the entry pipe. I will have to have it re-done for a few thousand euros Anyway he is going to unblock it but he said it will block again. He can't come next week so it will have to wait until I return from England.
Frosty and sunny again. A very good friend is coming for lunch, she hasn't been here yet.
Dordogne and Norfolk. Clay in Dordogne, sandy in Norfolk.
Not at all @Busy-Lizzie I just hope everything can be repaired for you. Sounds like a complicated repair and an expensive one too. Can you get another opinion/quote? And have your son there with you? x
You carry on telling us Busy. We are here lend sympathetic ears and only wish that there was something else we could do. It sounds a total - and expensive - nightmare. I don't suppose that there is any chance you could make a claim on insurance. I'm not sure how all things relating to house buying in France go. Is P - former owner - the same P as handy man and owner of Caesar? He certainly has some explaining to do if he is.
Chive Lily is much more relaxed today - as am I. It will forever puzzle me how she knew she was going to the Vet's even though I had left the cat carrier out in full view for several days before hand. She must have picked up on my stress.
Hazel, you are right, it has been a while since Yvie posted. I too hope that all is fine with her. I hope that Ante has managed to get his shelves assembled and that he hears soon from his sister.
Cacoethes: An irresistible urge to do something inadvisable
Afternoon All, sons car failed 😞 so that’s been disappointing news for him it will need a few bits doing to go through.
Busy Certainly not fed up with hearing about your septic tank situation, just feel utterly frustrated for you it’s been one step forward and two or more back. Is this the sort of thing that should have been picked up (or made aware of) on a home survey before you purchased? I wondered if you’d have any recourse through your insurance, Hazel What a busy week you have planned, hope the parcel arrived promptly so you could get off to the SM. How are your granddaughters now? I hope they are both ok, Must motivate myself to do something, have a nice afternoon everyone.
LB, I assembled both shelves and it took me a good two hours.
Bussy, sorry to hear about new problem. It seems that there is no end of it.
Chive, I hope that you find motivation for something. Sorry to hear about your sons car.
SGL, enjoy in your new hoby. It sounds interesting.
I spoke with my sister an hour ago. She and her fiance broke up. I didn't even knew that they have any major problem and would love that she told me about that earlier. Now is all over. I would like that she is closer, than I would be , little less worried. They was planning to come at february, but now it's questionable will she come. It seems that I'll have few more restless nights.
